No it doesn't. When I have two nics on DHCP on the same ethernet segment, it
cannot be made to work. I don't know the ip addresses beforehand. And if if
I would get them with scripting and crafted some rules on the fly, there's
no way I can be sure I'll get the same IP's on a renew, so I'd have to check
often.
